Quote:Is there a way to show model from different angle easily? Currently the only way I know is copy the whole model as a subfile, ignore all the parts in the subfile and display it as a callout without arrows. This does not scale well: suppose you have to change something in the beginning of the model, then you'll have to change all the copies too.
If I understand correctly what you want, you need to use ROTSTEP to change viewpoint of your current view. Note that ROTSTEP is to be placed at the END of the step you want to display with another viewpoint.


Quote:ASR/NSR switch because if ASR is enabled you can lose current orientation by switching steps, so I constantly check the switch.
That's something I almost never use... but there is a defined keyboard shortcut (b) that you can customize if needed.


Quote:Flexible nets are not supported
Tough problem, this has been asked for several times...


Quote:I know you can make part bin with colors (even with counts, that is very cool, much faster than Studio), but it would be useful to quickly change color bin selection to only physically available colors for the part. Maybe even make such mode default, but quickly switchable to current mode.
This needs a properly updated database of available colors for a given part. Possible by tapping in external inventories websites, but it create a dependancy to that website...


Quote:The worst thing is speed.
I definitely agree with you, but have you tried to use LPub3D native renderer? Not a panacea as it comes with some other issues (scaling management), but it's definitely faster. Still, it's still not that fast in some cases, I'm currently struggling with it for a model that includes large Technic baseplate: takes a while...
